I've also been busy doing stuff for Steve Jackson Games. |
As it happened, I had a friend who was a good person who liked to present himself as a dreadful one. Using him as a role model, I created the first Buck Godot strip. |
We start out talking about the story, trying to figure out who is who and what should happen, taking notes the whole time. Then I do a rough layout of the issue, showing what happens on each page. Then we discuss that some more. |
If we had to go live action, I'd hold out for Tim Burton to direct. |
I didn't really think about becoming a professional artist until high school, when I realized that everything else required too much math. |
One of the characteristics I cherish in my friends is their childlike gullibility, and several excited minutes were spent trying to actually find this book. |
Why the hell can't people just write nice happy stories about people having happy sex? That's what I want, and I bet a whole bunch of other people want it too. |
My only requirement for that first story was that there had to be a fight or an explosion on every page. Naturally, no one wanted to publish it, but I liked the character, did a few stories to keep my hand in. |
